    Yeah it’s cool. Lots of fun, creepy and scary. Not a big RE fan but I’d recommend. The first person really adds to the horror. 8/10

    i personally dont like too much horror in resident evil games, and this game definitely has alot of jumpscares unlike the other games like re2 re3 re4 but although this game still has a good storyline gameplay but i personally dont like this much horror in resident evil games so ill just give it a 8 for good gameplay and story

    The general consensus is that this game is a return to form for Resident Evil, as in it brings the creeping survival horror element back to the forefront.

    While this game is memorable and definitely a great reference point for the series going forward (hopefully they remake the original game to be more like this), I do feel like the story didn't draw me in right away because the rational part of my brain kept going "literally none of this needs to happen." But that said, once it gets going, ya get locked into it.

    The one particular complaint I want to include here is that the VR mode is better at most points, but then there are other points where I just flat-out wasn't looking at the right area for certain jump scares like I would've in non-VR and it actually confused me. That and the sound design is a little over-reactive to Ethan's footsteps; I kept thinking someone was right near me when it was literally just Ethan brushing up against some tiny object.

    Overall, great game, though. The story is more believable than most Resident Evil titles. The grittiness in the atmosphere makes the environment feel somewhat less fictional, which makes the scares from abnormal circumstances remain engaging, even when it gets ridiculous. Comes off a little bit like an homage to multiple classic horror movies, but it ties it all together organically enough to not feel like fan service. Definitely a worthwhile title for fans of horror games.    … Expand

    This was my first resident evil game and all I could remember was people hating on the first person POV. I wish I could see the dumb look on their faces when they realize how good this game is.

    eu ia dar 7 por conta de ser o setimo jogo, mas esse jogo merece mais que 7 ou 8

    e lá vamos nós...

    resident evil 7 é um jogo que reimagina completamente o conceito original da serie RE mantendo os puzzles e usando o survival horror da maneira correta, um exemplo de um survival horror e até mesmo de jogo semi mundo aberto. um dos melhores resident evil's com foco em horror já criado.

    A mixed bag of highs and lows. The actual game play was crap. It was slow, clumsy and glitch ridden at times. The atmosphere, story and characters generated loads of spooky creepy weird fun. RE7 looks and sound amazing and the voice actors really all shine in the roles they have, but I am here to game not to watch a movie. That being said this one did really grow on me and not like mold.A mixed bag of highs and lows. The actual game play was crap. It was slow, clumsy and glitch ridden at times.

VR mode vs standard mode? Well standard mode the odd jump scare. VR mode screaming my head off multiple times!

    After trying several different VR games the motion sickness has finally gone. Still with all that plastic and rubber on the head? Head overheat happens pretty quicky. Yeah even when using a massive floor fan to try and counter it. Maybe I need to use PS/VR in the winter or something?    … Expand

    amazing game

    Tried it in VR lol but I felt sick jumping off the first ledge at the start.

    Played it without VR, unreal.

    Can’t imagine how brutal it is in VR.

    Bring on RE Village !

    edit - played it in vr, absolutely mind blowing

    I like resident evil formula a lot, however this game would ve worked better if had the same thing as re2 did where u can see if a room you ve explored has no more items u can get. The level design while its still mind blowing at times it isnt as well put together as sometimes i didnt know if i should keep some items or if theyre usages is gone. Also the last act felt a bit overwhelming,I like resident evil formula a lot, however this game would ve worked better if had the same thing as re2 did where u can see if a room you ve explored has no more items u can get.

    Resident Evil 7, arguably the scariest modern Resident Evil and probably the least enjoyable one... but not in a bad way.
    Once again in a Resident Evil game, the story is not good but it's not an important part of the game either, no need to analyze it.
    Same goes for the characters, although the Baker family are very creepy and interesting antagonists, particularly Jack Baker, one of the    Resident Evil 7, arguably the scariest modern Resident Evil and probably the least enjoyable one... but not in a bad way.

    Same goes for the characters, although the Baker family are very creepy and interesting antagonists, particularly Jack Baker, one of the most threatening yet fun antagonists in the entire series with some of the best moments in the game.
    The gameplay is okay; everything works well, the shooting mechanics are satisfying and the survival horror elements are there, however, the movement is very slow and it gets annoying when facing the Molded; the main enemy type of the game and the only enemy type of the game, unfortunately.
    The atmosphere and the setting though, are probably my favorite parts of the game; they're haunting, terrifying and disgusting, which are backed up by very good graphics and audio design.
    As for the pacing, it's mostly consistent up until the last third of the game, where it feels dragged out, but the final boss is kinda cool.

    Pros:
    + Memorable antagonists
    + Decent gameplay
    + Compelling atmosphere + Wonderful setting
    + Beautiful visuals

    Cons:
    - Poor enemy variety
    - Boring enemy types
    - Bloated last third

    Narrative: ?/10
    Gameplay: 6/10
    Content: ?/10
    Characters: 4/10
    Music: ?/10
    Graphics/Audio: 8/10

    Final Rating: 7.5/10

    Resident Evil 7: biohazard is a great modern horror game and a very solid videogame in general, and it's also the scariest Resident Evil game in a while.

    This game single-handedly saved the franchise. Bringing it back to its survival horror roots. RE7 will go down as one of the best in the franchise, as it tackled something new to Resident Evil... first person. It exceeded in a majority of areas, though the boat segment is a bit off-putting even though I kind of like it.

    Definitely a must play for all horror fanatics!

    This has nothing to do with older RE parts. In fact, it is an even heavier kind of horror. The fps perspective just works fine. Overall rating: 8.9.

    O RE7 é o retorno triunfal da franquia. Tem o gênero de survivla horror dos primeiros e ainda acrescenta um terror, principalmente com o modo em primeira pessoa, que pode não agradar alguns, mas funciona. O puzzles, cenários e a história simples funciona perfeitamente. O jogo é bizarramente bom e desesperador em alguns momentos. Simplesmente um dos melhores da franquia.

    BRAVO!! as a day one fan this game is what we wanted after 1,2,3 & CV before it drifted away with 4,5 &6 and became a non horror game which were CoD like with no real survival. 7 brought the series back on it's feet!!

    the formula is finally once again: low ammo, survival, some riddles (could be more and more difficult) and maybe the best setting ever. THAT is what RE should look like.

    Whether played in VR or not, Resident Evil 7: biohazard is a thrilling game and it shouldn’t be missed. If you have the option to play the game with a PSVR, you should by all means do so. Regardless of how you play Resident Evil 7: biohazard, just be sure that you do because it is one of 2017’s finest releases and the constant stream of DLC keeps the nightmare alive.
